The craftsmen did not dare to confront him on behalf of the government, and the price increase must be the explanation of their bosses behind the scenes, who took the opportunity to make a fortune!

Aboud let out a long sigh, the empire is not what it used to be!

He was well-informed, and saw the powerful families greedily sucking blood on the body of the empire, regardless of the fact that the country was in danger.

When the Chinese first seized Cairo, the Damascus magnates sat idly by, so that the Chinese were able to gain a foothold.

The local city guard, Adev Pasha, was keen to drink and watch the dancing girls dance, and he had no intention of governing the government, but whoever called him someone in the court, although some people sued the court that his life was not green enough, but he could not help it.

They have the strength, even if they can't recapture Cairo, they can make it impossible for the Chinese to build a city smoothly, but they don't do anything at all.

This time, the troops sent were all old and weak soldiers, and there were even gray-haired veterans who were over 70 years old, and such a thing was a good thing that those powerful people dared to do!

Aboud worked official business, and finally prepared the supplies after a month, and he shipped a batch as soon as he made it, and his positive attitude was obvious, and Farhad Pasha did not care too much about his delay in supplying the supplies in time.

At this time, the siege of Cairo New City has begun!

The first is to fill the ravine, Farhad Pasha used 20,000 people in the old city of Cairo to push small carts, carrying sacks of soil to rush to the moat, and more than 20,000 people shouted the slogan "Fight for God, die for God can go to heaven", the scene is spectacular.

The Chinese opened fire, and the people fled as if they had blown up the camp, and even the Overseers could not stop them from escaping, and they simply knelt down: "Kill us, we would rather die at your hands than at the hands of those infidels!" ”

When Farhad Pasha heard the news, he was very angry and forced: "If they don't go, you will go, if you can't complete the task, I will die, and you will die!" ”

At this point, the soldiers hardened their hearts, cursed, whipped the people with leather whips, kicked them with their feet, and drove them forward with their backs!

The crowd cried and howled, and some shouted hoarsely: "Farhad Pasha you will go to hell in the future, you will definitely go to hell, we die at the hands of the infidels /!" ”

The voice was tragic, after all, there was no sound, perhaps he had died under the guns of the Chinese, waiting for the arrival of Fahad Pasha in hell.

Before the two sides had a big war, they came to this one, and the Chinese saw the schadenfreude, listened to the commander's orders, and shot accurately at those people.

To blame themselves, let them leave at the beginning, and now send them on their way, let them become sacrifices in the new city of Cairo!

Bang bang bang...... A volley of guns and shotguns fired, and the people of Cairo fell in pools of blood, not even on the edge of the moat.

It's all dead goods, the people are not trained, they rush straight ahead, it's easy to shoot them!

Farhad Pasha was not a cold-blooded animal after all, and he used tens of thousands of archers to take cover, and they concentrated their shots, and the arrows flew like locusts, and the sky darkened.

However, the Chinese were well equipped, and many wore a second layer of armor or more, which could not be penetrated by bows and arrows.

The southeastern army had money and issued a set of armor to each of the infantry, while many of the Ottoman troops under the city were cloth.

Many infantrymen spend their own money to buy an extra set of armor, and they don't have to march anyway, so it doesn't matter if they walk around the city and wear a little more.

There was a fellow who was particularly attracted to arrows, and was hit by more than thirty arrows, which made him like a hedgehog, but he was still alive and kicking, and even shouted loudly on the city walls, mocking the Ottomans to his heart's content.

Rushed to the moat, poured mud into the river, and all 20,000 people who tried to fill the moat died under the city!

The muskets of the South-East Army were fired intensively, especially the towers and corner towers, which were full of holes, constantly spewing tongues of fire, shooting bullets at the people, knocking them all to the ground.

The corpses were piled up, the corpses in the dense forest were shocking, the blood flowed into the moat, dyed red everywhere, the smell of blood made the smell sick, and the people who did not die were still cramping and moaning on the ground, like hell!

So many people died, but only a small part of the moat was filled, much to the annoyance of Farhad Pasha!

At first, he did not order the collection of corpses, wanting to make them stink and stink the defenders of the city.

But his chief of staff, Ghazi, convinced him, saying that there are things that can't be done too much, how can they all be co-godbrothers!

Eventually, Farhad Pasha sent an envoy to inform the Chinese to collect the corpses, so that during their work, the Chinese did not shoot or shoot, at most they kept a close surveillance.

The people who filled the ravines were all gone, but there was still water in many places in the moat.

Just when the soldiers were worried that they would be used, a "happy" news came that the Sultan had sent 40,000 paddling slaves from the Ottoman Navy to serve in the army.

The Ottoman navy still had a large number of oar-scratching boats, and the work in the cabins were all slaves, who came from a wide range of sources, mainly slave owners in the empire to collect slaves from various tribes, including European, southern Empire, Asian, African slaves, all races, Caucasians, yellows and blacks, and brown-skinned Assan, which were sold by the Mughal Empire.

When the slaves were brought ashore, many described them as withered, pale as paper because they had not seen sunlight for many years, and looked miserable as hunched over in the cramped cabins.

But the Ottoman soldiers were hardened as iron and ruthlessly drove the slaves to charge!

The slaves numbly strapped their bags and rushed towards the city, perhaps death was their best relief!

Come on!

The slaves were crowded in droves to the moat.

Boom Boom!

The heavy artillery in the city opened fire, and the shells made a bloody path in the crowd, and where the projectiles passed, the human bones were broken and the legs were broken, and the people fell to the ground and groaned, and they were miserable.

As they approached the river, the shotguns opened fire and muskets fired, slicing blood in the charging crowd.

Lives fly by, and a man falls down screaming, and the living throw all the dead and not dead into the ditch, and fill them with the mud they have dropped, which is filling the gully!

Human hands and legs stretched out from the dark red muddy water, and after a while, the water there became even more bright red, and it turned out that the person was not dead, but was still bleeding!

Bang! Bang!

The explosions kept ringing, and it turned out that the Chinese dropped bombs, and some of the bombs blew people away.

The slaves continued to pour dirt into the river, and after a total of 40,000 lives, the moat was finally filled everywhere!

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, the task that required human lives to fill the battle but no results to be won was finally over, but their commander, Farhad Pasha, had a stinking face and no joy in his face, as if someone else owed him millions of silver dollars.

Everyone wondered, what's wrong with him, what's not to be satisfied with?
